Grandin 4 | 23m | 6s | Westrich Pacific | J+S Architect

Cross-laminated Timber (CLT) is the new gold -- very popular in Europe. A potential big industry for Alberta for someone who is willing to bite it off.

CLT is great and yes a huge potential for Alberta. However there are other Mass Timber products that could also serve many of these projects. Or looking at hybrid. Mass Timber and Light frame, MT and steel, MT and conc.

Isn't there a BP out for this already? Construction should be commencing?

I just received a notice of proposed land use changes on this project - change from RA9 (high rise) to DC2 for 6 storey.

I thought we were past this. Guess it will be a little while yet.

I thought that occurred awhile go?

It did. But I received another one dated Oct. 18.

I believe this was appealed to the SDAB due to the number of variances, so they are coming back with a rezoning again

 

[Gronk!]

Are they still naming this "Grandin 4"? I thought Grandin is now a dirty word since the person in question was a racist.

This was given zoning approval on Monday. Will likely be the next Westrich project in Oliver I'm guessing.

113 street on the left side of image, 100 Ave on the right.

It's pretty tight to the sidewalk on the southend (100 ave).

Hopefully the trees on 100 Ave make it. Gotta think the root system goes into the parkade space.

Looks alright, aside from the colour palette inspiration being a 2008 Oilers away jersey.

A number of recent Westrich low rises have looked like Vancouver tower podiums. Not a bad thing. Would be nice to have the tower on top though.

Their property on this same block, just across the alley on 112 street, is proposed as a tower with commercial units.
